There be a bug in Chemistry

Post by Azmodan412 » 21 May 2016, 14:13

Bug Description: If you are like me, you enjoy piddling around with chemicals, seeing what you can make. I was using the
chem guide (wiki/Chem_Guide) and trying to make Silicate. The recipe is Aluminum, Silicon, and Oxygen. But when I put those three into the beaker, nothing happened.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Put the three chems into a beaker.
2. Profit.
3. Scratch your head in bemusement as to why you didn't get Silicate

The three bottles are the three reagents. Notice how there isn't a silicate bottle.

I never heard of that chemical before, perhaps it does not exist or the wiki is false on it? At least on CM.

From what I can tell 'silicate' didn't become a thing on Baychem until sometime in 2015. Dunno what version of Bay CM is built off of, but it might be that the chemistry guide copied info from the latest Baychem page without knowing that Silicate likely doesn't exist in CM.

If your using Baycode chemistry guide that Chemical wasn't actually added to the CMcode, Infact I'm pretty certain that isn't even a thing in Baycode anymore.

It is in the code, but disabled. I remember it being disabled in LLA 2 years ago.

Not a bug. Silicate was removed due to being quite useless from many sources.
